Galatasaray have reportedly shifted grounds in their pursuit for the permanent signing of Victor Osimhen as Napoli remains defiant on their financial demands.

According to Turkish outlet Sozcu, his performances have prompted Galatasaray to start making plans for his permanent signing and have prepared an offer of €50 million.

Napoli will not accept any offer less than his release side of €75 million after it was reduced in his extended contract before he made the move to Istanbul.

The Turkish champions are unwilling to take no for an answer despite Napoli’s insistence on receiving the full worth of the player who will not return to their club.

According to Fanatik, Gala have upped their offer to around €66mil paid in three instalments, with add-ons potentially taking it to the €75 million release clause.

The publication added that Napoli have not said yes to this offer but have also not outrightly rejected it, indicating that there could be a breakthrough in the negotiations.
